Missionless gave you a solution. Download an english version and use you CD key to install it.
If you dont know how to download games than tell us and someone will PM you.
Or you could write to EA support.

But you should have more than one language available.

didn't really want to torrent for it tbh. sure it isnt the only option aswell cos if you explore the disk, you can see all the lanuages there. just need to find someone who knows how to unlock them

got a similar problem i think
if i want to install in english i have to choose "German" which is definitely wrong
if i want to install in german i have to choose "Deutsch" which is correct
(didn't find english in the list so i wondered and tried)

Can't you change the strings.csv file? it's an excel sheet with columns for every language. Copy the English column over the Thai language column?
You can find it in [install dir]:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142\mods\bf2142\Localization

Backup the old strings.csv file first of course.

yea I had the same problem. I have the german version too.
But he says he doesnt have any other language to choose. Did you by any chance pay only 4-5 $ for it

changing the strings.csv might not work
in my strings.csv there is everything in all languages
and even if it works there are the different sound files for each language (well that would be a minor problem i think)

if you are german and search for english but you have "german" and "deutsch" thats confusing

Don't know if that work, but try to reinstall the patch and make sure to select ENG.  It happen everytime you install a new patch, if your are not watching you may miss that...
